Meta and Salesforce are looking to re-hire some workers they just laid off. It’s putting those people in an awkward spot::Big Tech wants to bring back some of the workers it laid off. The decision might come down to how a company handled the layoffs.

    If they no longer wanted you because investors told them to get rid of you, why would they care about you if you rejoined?

      If you’re not desperate for a job, and found it at least tolerable before, then I’d say ask for an outrageous salary increase. Worst-case, you stay at your new job, best case you go back to your old job but making more money.

        Meh, with that higher pay you’ll be first on the chopping block the next time investors get antsy anyway. Better to just stick with the new place.

            Hahahahaha. No. Not at the working class level, anyways. At the executive level, maybe someones.

              Two things I find disturbing here: first, that such contracts are apparently impossible; second, that they are so very impossible that you find it funny.
